Dear club members,

Sunday 4th October 2020, London Marathon day, Lancaster & Morecambe AC junior endurance athletes ran the well know London Mini Marathon whilst  our marathon runners were running the gruelling 26.2 miles.

As we all start to live in a ‘New Normal’ world it was interesting to see how running event may be able to take place post Lockdown.

One of the quickest female athletes to ever pull on the Lancaster & Morecambe AC vest is Louise Gardner.

LMAC Lancaster to Eiffel Tower challenge

Dear club members, 

This is a very simple 4 week programme for 5K distances you can do yourself while no club training sessions

Message from the chairman 

We hope all our members are well and managing to keep fit. This message is being written on Sunday and it's difficult to assimilate all that's happened in less than a week.

 All Members and Parents

England Athletics have issued a statement today on the Coronavirus, advising clubs to avoid all face to face activity, including training sessions and competitions until at least the end of April. (See statement below).

Five years ago I said I don’t do running, I don’t get it, it’s daft.

It was another great day at Sportshall in Preston this Sunday with our Lancaster and Morecambe Athletics Club athletes demonstrating their all-round abilities in indoor running, jumping and throwing.

Lancaster & Morecambe AC Junior cross country runners, headed off to Witton Park, Blackburn for the County XC Championships, we knew the course would be muddy it normally is, but we had hoped the rain would hold off, which it did for the most part with the odd very cold shower to remind us it was January, and the wind made its presence known during the races, but despite this we came away with 3 County Champions. 

A pleasant, slightly cloudy morning greeted runners at the Lancaster & Morecambe Athletic Club’s annual Festive 4k Fun Run on the morning of Friday December 27th.  This was a special year, celebrating the 20^th anniversary of the run.  Over 350 entrants turned up to run off excess Christmas pudding and turkey! – nearly as many as last year.. 

Didcot parkrun in Oxfordshire was our warm-up for our “proper” race on Sunday 24^th November.  Muddy grass 3 laps round a field – I could maybe one day get myself a pair of trail shoes and join the LMAC Senior ladies XC team…..I did say maybe!  Yes, I did actually enjoy the parkrun.  Moving on…………

The Lancaster and Morecambe Athletics Club’s team of indoor sportshall athletes has achieved great results in both of the first two Lancashire County Sportshall League competitions of the season. 

Lancaster & Morecambe AC juniors headed off to Liverpool this weekend to compete in the Cross Challenge cross country, a national fixture and also the European cross country trials.

We are pleased to announce the Lancaster & Morecambe Athletic club 2020 senior championship races

Hyndburn was the destination for the 2^nd Mid Lancs cross country fixture it proved as always to be a challenging course, made even more difficult with the very muddy and cold conditions. Lancaster & Morecambe AC juniors rose to the challenge however and put in some very strong and determined performances.

So the seniors road running championship 2019 came to an end and we had 22 club runners turning out – one of best attended races of year (along with 22 at Garstang earlier in year).
